Buckle up folks, it has definitely started. Today it's managers, tomorrow is the main dish - everybody else.
I'm personally really happy it's finally happening, the whole waiting game was worse than the actual layoffs. I'm now at a point where I'm hoping I'm on the list. Sad but true.
I wouldn't complain too much if your manager isn't gone. It means you still have a chance, if you want it. If your manager got axed then there is a good likelihood that the rest of the team is sure to follow.
Seems like the 9% being used across the board vs making real decisions. We have so much management who don't contribute to getting oil out of the ground. Yet we barley trim managment. Very disappointing!
Explain being pushed back into BU's?
Life goes on. Because of bad management resulting in poor decisions and top managements blind eye to correct it you have seen Devons best days, they are in the rear view mirror. If you have a career don't plan on it with Devon. If you are near the light take the money and run, find something more enjoyable if you can afford to and take the time to reflect and find something that is satisfying.
